Following are some tips to heed and traps to avoid when working with a wedding photographer:
- Hire a full-time working professional photographer.
- Meet the photographer and see his work. Never agree to a contract over the telephone.
- Don't assume anything. Somp people say, 'I assumed all professional photographers were the same.' But they are not, and you can't do it again if the photographer doesn't get it right.
- Not many brides ask the photographer's advice. "I've been in this business 20 years and could offer some suggestions, but few people say, 'What do you think? What is your opinion?" one seasoned veteran says.
- Stay away from photographers who want total control and who will only shoot pictures a certain way. I knew a photographer who would only shoot horizontally. Some will only take the shots on their list and no others, or only shoot a certain number of rolls of film. Rules like that are ridiculous in the creative process.
